Dr. Hui Xu is an associate professor in counseling psychology at Loyola University Chicago. He has been affiliated with SVP since graduate school and has received graduate student and early career awards from the organization. His scholarship in vocational psychology focuses on career decision-making and adaptation in an international context, with particular attention given to the decolonization of theories and practices in vocational psychology and career counseling. His recent theoretical and empirical work focuses on explaining and prescribing how people handle uncertainty in career development. Dr. Xu is the recipient of the Bruce and Jane Walsh Grant in Memory of John Holland from the American Psychological Foundation and currently serves as an Associate Editor of the Journal of Vocational Behavior. He previously served as the Vice President (Research) for the Association of Chinese Helping Professionals and Psychologists-International and led a special issue about international counseling students on TCP.
